Whether you're on your board or playing on the beach, rash guards protect your skin from the harsh rays of the sun and from the elements around you. Rash guards, named so for the fact they guard your skin from abrasions, can be worn by themselves or under a wet suit. Perfect for watersports like surfing, scuba diving, snorkeling, wakeboarding, body surfing, or swimming, the fabric is made with UPF protection to keep your skin safe from the sun. Rash guards also help to prevent irritation caused by rapid impact with surface water and waves and from your sand-covered surf or body boards. Short or long sleeve, rash guards keep you covered.

Popular surf brands like Roxy and Volcom are known for making surf and water sport apparel, but swim brands like Trina Turk and B. Swim are jumping on board to help make safe suits for those active beach goers. With dozens of brands to choose from, SwimOutlet has apparel for all your summer needs.
